Google is laying off "several hundred" employees in its advertising sales team, Business Insider has learned.
Schindler wrote that the cuts were the result of changes being made to how Google's sales team operates.
BI previously reported that Google was shifting more staff away from Large Customer Sales (LCS), a team that serves the company's bigger advertising clients, to its Google Customer Solutions (GCS) team, which serves more medium-level clients.
This reorg is the next evolution of that as cuts appear to be primarily targeted at the LCS team.
Our goal has always been to have the right customer, mapped to the right channel for growth, with the best support models and streamlined operations.
